What Are Dentures?
Dentures are prosthetic dental appliances intended to replace missing teeth, restoring both the functionality of your mouth and the appearance of your smile. They can be complete, replacing all teeth in either your upper or lower jaw, or partial, filling in gaps left by missing teeth. They help improve chewing ability, speech, and facial aesthetics, supporting the cheeks and lips for a more youthful appearance. Our dentist offers a variety of denture options, including:
- Partial Dentures: We offer partial dentures designed to replace some missing teeth while preserving your remaining natural teeth.
- Full Dentures: Our full dentures are used when all teeth in an arch are missing, providing a complete set of replacement teeth for your mouth.
- Traditional Dentures: We offer traditional dentures that sit directly on your gums, using suction or adhesive to stay securely in place.
- Implant-Supported Dentures: Our implant-supported dentures are secured to dental implants, offering added stability and support for your mouth.
Why Might I Need Dentures?
We recognize that dentures play an essential role in enhancing your smile and improving your quality of life. As a versatile solution, dentures are designed to accommodate various dental needs, offering both comfort and functionality. Whether you require partial or fixed dentures, our options are tailored to help you regain confidence and enjoy everyday activities easily. Reasons you may need dentures include:
- Tooth Loss: Missing teeth from decay, injury, or gum disease can limit your oral function and impact your aesthetics. Dentures can help restore both your ability to eat a variety of foods and improve the overall appearance of your smile.
- Difficulty Chewing and Speech Issues: With missing teeth, you may struggle to chew certain foods and experience difficulties with pronunciation. Dentures provide support for improved chewing function and clearer speech.
- Facial Structure Support: Losing teeth can lead to sagging cheeks and changes in your facial appearance. Dentures provide support, helping to maintain your facial structure and overall aesthetics.
- Gum Disease and Bone Loss: Severe gum disease can cause tooth loss and jawbone deterioration. Implant-supported dentures can address these issues and help restore both function and aesthetics.
Our Denture Process
We begin your denture process with a comprehensive consultation, during which our dentist examines your mouth and discusses your specific needs and preferences. We evaluate your oral health, review your medical history, and determine which denture option suits you. This appointment allows us to answer any questions and outline the next steps in your treatment.
After finalizing the treatment plan, we will move on to the next steps. This could involve extracting damaged teeth, treating gum disease, or placing any dental implants to support your dentures if you choose the implant-supported option. Following the placement of the implants, a healing period is essential to allow your gums and jawbone to integrate properly. This healing phase typically takes several weeks and is crucial for the stability and comfort of your final dentures.
Once any needed healing is complete, we'll take impressions of your bite, and you will return for a follow-up appointment to place your custom restoration. During this visit, we will carefully fit your dentures and make any necessary adjustments to provide comfort and function. We aim to provide you with a seamless transition to your new dentures, enhancing your appearance and quality of life.
Denture FAQs
We understand that receiving dentures can seem intimidating and leave you with questions. Our knowledgeable team is ready to answer your questions and provide guidance throughout your treatment. Common questions regarding dentures include:
Dentures should be cleaned daily using a soft brush, mild soap, or a cleanser. It's also important to soak them in a cleansing solution when not in use to keep them moist and maintain their shape. If your dentures are implant-supported, you can simply brush them as you would your natural teeth.
While you can enjoy most foods, avoiding very hard, sticky, or chewy foods that may damage your dentures is advisable. Avoiding these helps increase the longevity of your dentures.
You cannot get cavities in the dentures themselves, but if you have remaining natural teeth, they can still develop cavities. Maintaining good oral hygiene is crucial.
